1961 NFL Championship Game Aerial

1961 was a special year in Green Bay, WI as it was the first year the Packers wore the “G” logo on their helmets, the first title game to be played in Green Bay, and the first of the Packers five NFL titles in seven years. Played at the recently built “New” City Stadium (now Lambeau Field) on New Year’s Eve the Green Bay Packers throttled the New York Giants 37-0. Paul Hornung, while on leave from the U.S. Army (along with fellow Packers Boyd Dowler and Ray Nitschke), was named the game’s MVP and scored nineteen points.
